Exited NZDJPY for a very small profit. USDJPY order never got filled. Missed by a couple pips. Just went long GBPJPY

NZDJPY trade still underway. Next trade is USDJPY long. ENTRY, STOP, TARGET = red lines

Will try the opposite way. Went short.

Out at b/e. This is taking too long.

Long NZDJPY. Stop/target = red lines

Yep. Every mistake is a chance to grow. There are usually several lessons to take away from each loss, especially ones you really thought out but were just wrong. We'd all love to win every time, but unfortunately that is an extremely hard thing to ...

I'll admit, first USDCAD trade was definitely a revenge trade. It was not thought out for very long. I have had my eye on this pair while also trading GBPNZD, but today's USDCAD loss was a trade put on too quickly, I agree. I've been doing some ...

USD/CAD

I'm done trying to catch a bottom on this pair, but I'm watching 1.9080. I won't buy there, but if price makes a nice move off that spot, I might try to jump in on some retracement. I think the biggest lesson I learned (again) is that trying to ...

I don't think my last trade even moved one pip in my favor. Just a straight shot to my stop! Hopefully this one will work out better. I see a different scenario now. Going short here. Stop/target on chart.

USD/CAD

Adjusting stop/target. Will then try a buy order at same spot as target and I'll give that one a 55 pip stop. Target will be 1.1224.

USD/CAD

Better than what I did. Well, I must have something seriously fucked up here, so I am taking a break from this pair. Already took a USDCAD trade short. I had a nice winning streak going before getting involved with this pair. Well, this is why I ...

Going short here. Stop and target on chart.

USD/CAD

Jeez this pair is being tough! I have raised my stop to the line in chart. If it goes there, I'll wait to see what happens before/if I jump back in.

Cool. Looks like we're on the same train then. And that's a great quote. I've seen it many times, but the best quotes are worth reading over and over throughout life. I thought I'd post a little observation I've made, and one I've noticed happen on ...

Sounds like a plan. Well, I put a stop all the way down to 1.8862. If it goes down there, I'll be shocked. It's still a 1:3 trade. I was trying to be too cute with that small stop at 1.9380. I always do better when I give myself more room ...

Nothing worse than waking up to see you were stopped out. Well, now I'm down 5% trying to catch a spot on this pair. Call me stubborn, but I just can't make myself believe that a long term high is in. I am back in at 1.9369, and now I am putting a ...

Market can either go up slow (waves) or go up fast (no retracements). Whichever one it chooses is fine by me. If it goes straight up, like the chart below, I won't be able to add as much or take out profits for a better price later, but I'll make ...

The only advice I'd offer on this is don't get so locked in to price hitting your target (even if it already came soooo close) that you overlook signs that your target ain't going to be reached. I am not saying your target won't be reached. I'm just ...
